使社会生态系统适应气候变化的预期影响不仅是一个复杂的技术问题，而且首先是一个要求很高的治理问题。由于气候变化具有邪恶问题的所有特征，传统的治理战略似乎不起作用。然而，大多数传统的治理机构都没有能力实施或至少容忍创新战略。本文分析了用于科普气候适应这一邪恶问题的各种战略，以及实现或限制这些战略的制度条件。为此，它依赖于一个由五种治理能力组成的理论框架，这些能力被认为是应对恶劣问题的关键：自反性，弹性，响应性，振兴和重新调整。该框架用于分析三个不同层面的气候变化适应治理：《联合国气候变化框架公约》及其协助适应的活动;欧洲联盟及其气候适应战略;荷兰及其三角洲方案。结果表明，传统的治理战略相当缺乏，在各级都可以看到反射性、复原力、反应迅速、振兴和调整规模的战略，尽管这些战略并不同样完善和重要。与文献相比，我们发现了许多有利的体制条件的例子。制约条件也存在，但往往更多地导致推迟而不是阻碍决策进程。
Adapting social-ecological systems to the projected effects of climate change is not only a complex technical matter but above all a demanding governance issue. As climate change has all the characteristics of a wicked problem, conventional strategies of governance do not seem to work. However, most conventional governance institutions are poorly equipped to enable, or at least tolerate, innovative strategies. This paper analyses the various strategies used to cope with the wicked problem of climate adaptation across scales, and the institutional conditions that enable or constrain such strategies. For this, it relies on a theoretical framework consisting of five governance capabilities that are considered crucial for coping with wicked problems: reflexivity, resilience, responsiveness, revitalization and rescaling. This framework is used to analyse the governance of adaptation to climate change at three different levels: the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its activities to assist adaptation; the European Union and its climate adaptation strategy; and the Netherlands and its Delta Program. The results show that conventional governance strategies are rather absent and that mixtures of reflexive, resilient, responsive, revitalizing and rescaling strategies were visible at all levels, although not equally well developed and important. In contrast to the literature, we found many examples of enabling institutional conditions. The constraining conditions, which were also present, tend to lead more to postponement than to obstruction of decision-making processes.
